Chicken Paprika

August 17, 2011

recipe

Posted 09/12

Thought I would show you a peek into my kitchen…where I spend a good amount of time feeding the boys in the family;) And while I am at it, I might as well share with you one of my family’s favorite meals. Its the one my husband usually requests for his birthday dinner;) It’s my mom’s recipe so there is a lot of sentiment tied to it! …

Chicken Paprika
(Recipe is for 2 lbs chiken but I often half it for 1 lb.)
2 lbs Chicken Breasts cut into strips
1 stick of butter
1 1/2 medium onions
1/3 c. sour cream
1 t. salt
1 t. pepper
2 t. paprika
1) Chop onion and place in a large cooking pot along with the stick of butter and cook over low heat until onions are clear.
2) Add salt, pepper, and paprika
3) Place the chicken around the bottom of the pot and let sit for two minutes on each side. Cover and let simmer for a good hour. Turn the chicken half way through. (The key to the flavor of this dish is letting it sit in the spices for a good long while!)
4) When the chicken is close to being finished, cook a pound of pasta of your choice. Cavatapi and Rotini are great ones.
4) When the chicken is ready, remove it from the pot and set aside. Add the sour cream to the sauce and whisk together.
5) Pour the sauce and chicken over the noodles and enjoy every last bite:)
Let me know if you have any questions!

    xx

  50. lovely photos Anna, I’m going to try your recipe in the weekend : )

  51. Erica says:

    You are just the cutest little thing.

    – Erica @ tinseltwine

  52. I love that combination of stripes and color. It is very similar to my personal style. Probably why I like it so much!

  53. here’s my question: how in the world do you eat such delicious food, have babies, and have such *tiny* little legs & bootie! i’m impressed.

    this looks yummy… and i can even make it with ingredients from an english grocery store. score. 🙂

  54. Bridget says:

    i wish my casual attire looked that sensational! that cardigan is a great color.

  55. hi-d says:

    Oh my goodness! I am so excited about this recipe, because I actually have all of the ingredients to make this! (without having to go to the store). I think I might use penne pasta, since that’s what I have on hand. Thank you!!!

    Also, I must say, if that’s your casual version – shorts, tee & unkempt hair, I can’t imagine you dressed tot he nines! You look AMAZING!!!

  56. mmm, reminds me of the chicken paprikash my grandma would make us! btw, your kitchen is so pretty!

  57. Anna, you are gorgeous and your kitchen is so beautiful. I love all the light you get in there!

  58. Kayla Poole says:

    you are adorable, anna!
